And yes… I’m gonna go out on a limb and guess “stay flat on your back” may have been next on the list 😅👀

Your birth team plays an incredibly important role, but pelvic floor prep? That’s my lane. 

Holding your breath + pushing as hard as you can isn’t your only option. Your breath, pelvic floor, position, pressure management + your preferences matter too.

Current guidance supports individualized pushing techniques and freedom of position when appropriate.
You deserve to know your options BEFORE you’re in labor. 💜

Apparently we needed a Part 2 👀

One of the BIGGEST questions after my last post:
“Wait… you can do that with an epidural?!”

YES. An epidural does not automatically equal lying flat on your back for birth.

Depending on how your body responds, your medical needs + the support available, you may still have options for positioning including supported upright positions like this throne position. 👑

And as a pelvic floor PT, I LOVE getting moms thinking about this before labor.

✨ Different positions = different ways for your pelvis + pelvic floor to move
✨ You don’t automatically have to birth flat on your back
✨ Your epidural experience may look completely different from someone else’s
✨ Ask your team what positioning options they support before the big day
You have options. Know them. Talk about them. Practice them. 🤍
And we haven’t even gotten to the mirror yet... 👀

Follow for Part 3.

Pregnant + realizing you have way more birth options than you thought?!

this is the kind of birth support that makes me smile🤍

✨ Her breath never stopped moving.
✨ She was encouraged to stay connected to her body.
✨ A mirror helped her see what was happening instead of fearing it.
✨ Her care team worked with her - not against her.

To me, that’s birth prep.
Not memorizing the “perfect” breathing technique.
Not forcing a birth plan.

It’s understanding your body, supporting your nervous system, and having tools to respond to labor with confidence.

That’s exactly what we practice inside the Birth Prep Experience.

So why ask your pelvic floor to do the biggest stretch of its life without giving it a few practice rounds first? 😉
